About cooqbooq

Most of what a family knows about its own food lives in one or two people, on cards in a drawer, or in nobody’s handwriting at all. cooqbooq is for getting it down before it goes — and then for actually using it: the next gathering, the next cook who asks how it was made, the next generation who never met the person who wrote it.

You can write a recipe, or photograph a handwritten card and keep the original as it is. You can start a family project and gather recipes from relatives by sending them a link — they need no account, which is the whole point, because the person with the best recipes is rarely the person who wants to sign up for something. You can build those recipes into a cookbook and order it printed as a keepsake.

cooqbooq is a small, independent project running a concierge pilot with a handful of families. There is no moderation team and no support desk — a person reads the mail. We would rather tell you that than imply a company that is not there.

There are no ads and no feed. Nothing you write is public unless you turn on a share link yourself. Recipes are never written by a machine — AI here tidies up a photograph of handwriting or draws a picture of a dish, and it is optional and labelled when it does.

Questions go to hello@cooqbooq.com — see Help for what to expect. If something of yours is in someone else’s collection, ask for it to be removed — no account needed.
